MAN 81082010478 Intake Manifold

Description

The MAN 81082010478 Intake Manifold is a critical engine component responsible for distributing the air-fuel mixture to the engine's cylinders. It is used within the intake system of compatible engines to optimize airflow and enhance combustion efficiency. This intake manifold is designed for improved engine performance and reliability, contributing to increased horsepower and torque. Its precise construction ensures a secure seal and consistent airflow, resulting in smoother engine operation and reduced emissions. The dimensions of this part are 27 x 80 x 280 mm.

Key Features & Benefits

This thing’s job is basically to distribute the air coming from your air filter to each of the cylinders in your engine. It's a series of runners, think of them like little hallways, that evenly feed each cylinder the air it needs to make power. It also usually has a place for fuel injectors to spray fuel directly into that incoming air stream, creating that air/fuel mixture the engine burns. Sometimes it incorporates things like sensors for air temperature or pressure too. It’s a pretty fundamental part of the engine, right at the heart of things. It sits between the air filter and the cylinder head. Everything that breathes into the engine goes through it. It's absolutely essential for the engine to run, and a big factor in how well it runs. It's one of the first stops for air on its way to being turned into power.

Symptoms, Risks & Replacements

Well, if the intake manifold is cracked, warped, or leaking, it throws everything off. You’ll notice if it’s really bad – probably a rough idle, loss of power, maybe even the engine light coming on. Even a small leak can mess with the air/fuel mixture, meaning the engine isn't running efficiently, and you’re wasting gas. It acts like a shield protecting the delicate internal parts from outside contaminants. A good manifold ensures consistent airflow to all cylinders, giving you the best possible performance and fuel economy.
